Corruption Risk · 4-Vector Breakdown
Corruption isn't just trade-based. Here's the four ways political pressure can flow, scored independently from the public record.
Vector 1 · Personal Enrichment trade-based
The politician reports zero personal trades across all available disclosure periods, with no purchases, sales, or late filings on record (`get_sponsor_profile.profile.trading_style`). There are no sector anomalies to analyze, as the total trade count is zero (`get_politician_intelligence.smart_money.total_tickers`). His portfolio activity is effectively inactive, making him a non-factor for stock-based conflict-of-interest analysis.

Top PAC funding sources are corporate other (25.7%), labor (14.9%), and healthcare (7.9%) (`get_donor_industry_breakdown.top_industries`).
